The Malpeque oyster fishery on Prince Edward Island has gone from being awarded the honour of receiving the name "the best in the world" at the 1900 World's Fair in Paris; to being devastated by the Malpeque oyster Disease; to the subsequent innovations and research of Dr. Needler which saw the recovery of the oyster industry to is former place of distinction.
